Beautiful little cottage that was a perfect location for some sightseeing in the area. The hot tub was a lovely bonus that we used everyday to help unwind. The owners left us a couple of treats to find upon arrival that were a lovely touch.

“Total relaxation”

We needed a get away to relax and that's exactly what we did. Totally isolated with nothing overlooking the property. Kept the doors open and let the dogs come and go as they pleased as there is a gate leading to the road and a field for them to roam. Local pub 10 minutes walk away, which was lovely. Hot tub was excellent even though we only used it once. Napton village is lovely with a post office/shop/cafe the centre of the community. Will look at booking again. It's just what was needed.

Owl cottage is perfectly situated for a peaceful relaxing break. Everything you need is available with the addition of a hot tub to wind down in. Our only concern would be the hard mattress.

We had such a lovely time. It's so nice to get away for a few days and be able to take your dogs with you! They had great fun playing in the secure garden while we relaxed in the hot tub! The cottage is absolutely beautiful and it's so peaceful :)

“The cottage is in a fantastic ...”

The cottage is in a fantastic location and easy to find, it has been well thought out layout wise and provides a good base for nearby towns. We chose this from previous recommendations and having a dog the fact that being a pet friendly location was essential. The addition of a hot tub is a real luxury and added to the relaxing atmosphere. There are many good walks away from the road to take the dog and I would strongly recommend Napton Village Post Office as a place to get good food and advice on the local area. The Kings Head pub in the village again is very dog friendly and the food fantastic, although we never went to the Folly I understand it is also dog friendly. Recommend walking dogs around Napton reservoir and onto the Grand Union and Oxford canals, we also visited Leamington Spa, my overall impression was that people are more laid back and friendly a nice change from the London commute!!

“We love Owl Cottage and it's ...”

We love Owl Cottage and it's situation on the edge of the village - and yet within walking distance to the King's Head, where they serve delicious meals and welcome Rosie, our labrador! We love Warwickshire and the wealth of history in the area - and also that are so many other interesting places to visit, just a bit farther afield.
This was our second visit to Owl Cottage - and we still love it so much that I have just booked again for next year!

I particularly liked the location and exterior was superb, especially hot tub and safety for our little dog.
Also liked the fact we were completely undisturbed and felt the place was our own. Definitely considering a return visit.

The privacy was awesome, and the surrounding countryside. Even the rain didn't stop us going in the fabulous hot tub. The owners had thought of everything, you could have baked a cake had you wanted to, everything you could possibly need was there. It was clean and perfect, this cottage would be hard to beat.

“Lovely secluded getaway”

This small, beautifully appointed cottage is set amongst fields and is secluded and peaceful. It has a fenced in garden which makes it safe for little dogs and the hot tub is perfect for after a days walking. We saw hare nearby and a Red Kite sat in a tree nearby - both visible from the hot tub.
Little touches such as tea and milk and some chocolates on arrival show that the owners really care about your stay.
It was cold during the week but the cottage is warm even without lighting the wood burner.
Walks along the nearby canal are easy and safe with two pubs on the way. The furthest, The Folly is 50 minutes away and had lovely pub food and a very friendly atmosphere. The Kings Head is a very short walk away and serves proper Gastro Pub food - you need to book it is so popular - but with none of the pretension that tends to be associated with "Gastro". Both pubs are dog friendly.

“Amazing Cottage - Stunning Location”

This cottage is an amazing little cottage based outside Napton on the Hill. This gives you the feeling of complete privacy whilst only being 5 minutes from a pub/ shop.
We had an amazing stay over new year, the view are incredible and the log burner and hot tub are wonderful added bonuses. Watching the fireworks whilst in the hot tub on New Year was an unforgettable experience.
The cottage is cosy and is extremely well equipped. We would definitely stay here again!
